Worktop repair for Great Fencote homes

About our worktop repair in Great Fencote

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Our repair technicians work on laminate, granite & marble and solid wood, and people most often call us about a chipped edge and cuts and scratches in the surface.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Fencote

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Fencote as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Great Fencote

  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Do you need worktop repair in Great Fencote?

Most chips are on edges and corners, typically from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Common questions in Great Fencote

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
